Every year, the lead-up to the draft feels like it takes forever. Then, draft weekend arrives, and the three-day process flies by in the blink of an eye. The 2026 NFL Draft was no different, and for all four teams in the NFC North, the emphasis on improving and separating themselves from the other teams […]
Nickeil Alexander-Walker’s inconsistency resurfaced at the worst possible time for Atlanta. Minnesota fans have seen this story unfold before.
One week after the 2026 NFL Draft, The Real Forno Show breaks down Minnesota Vikings overreactions and why Jake Golday is the perfect Brian Flores linebacker. Tyler Forness and Dave Stefano deliver sharp film analysis on the Vikings’ draft class, Caleb Banks reach, Blake Brandel at center, no WR selected, and Jauan Jennings timing in […]
For a brief, hopeful moment in the early goings of 2016, it looked like the Minnesota Twins might be able to dig themselves out of their 0-9 hole. Four consecutive victories—a sweep of the Angels and a win over the Brew Crew—harbored hope for a comeback. Byung-Ho was launching massive Park-bangs and even professional wrestlers […]
It wasn’t a good day for the Brotherhood Thursday in the NBA playoffs. Jayson Tatum and Boston lost to Philadelphia, 106-93. That series is now tied 3-3. Minnesota eliminated Tyus Jones and the Denver Nuggets with a 110-98 win in Game 6. And New York eliminated Atlanta, also in Game 6, but this was more […]
That's Wild
THEY DID IT! The Minnesota Wild have won their first-round playoff series against the Dallas Stars in just six games after a controlling 5-2 win on Thursday night. The series was full of highs and lows and it looked for a brief moment that it was going to be stretched to seven and t...
Quinn Hughes scored a pair of goals, including the game-winner, and had an assist, and the Minnesota Wild eliminated the Dallas Stars with a rousing 5-2 victory in Game 6 at Grand Casino Arena in Saint Paul. It was Minnesota’s first postseason series win since 2015. Former Florida Panther Vladimir Tarasenko and Matt Boldy also scored for the Wild, who got 21 saves from goaltender Jesper Wallstadt. Minnesota will take on the Colorado Avalanche next.

The Quinn Hughes trade gave the Minnesota Wild unprecedented optimism heading into the postseason. Finally, the team had the big-name starpower to take on all comers, or at least, in theory. There was still the tricky matter of, you know, getting out of the first round for the first time since 2015,...
Jaden McDaniels will forever be a mainstay in Minnesota Timberwolves lore. He could miss every shot for the rest of the playoffs. His series against the Denver Nuggets will be remembered by everyone. After game five, the former Washington Husky sat at the podium to face questions after a shaky game. His team down their […]

The Timberwolves completed the upset. They defeated Nikola Jokic’s Nuggets in Game 6 110-98, without Anthony Edwards, Donte DiVincenzo, Ayo Dosumnu, and Kyle Anderson, to win the series 4-2. They will face the Spurs on Monday in the first game of the Western Conference Semifinals. The Timberwolves had an up-and-down season but had ample playoff […]
This one hurts

WE ALWAYS KNEW TSJ WAS THIS GOOD. WHY DID NOBODY LISTEN???? I could’ve told you two years ago that Minnesota was getting a steal when it took Terrence Shannon Jr. late in the first round of the NBA Draft. And for the second year in a row, he’s showing out in the postseason. With Anthony […]
The Twins finally found the solution to their bullpen: just score enough that they can’t ruin it. Byron Buxton did everything he could, and this time, the rest of the lineup was able to deliver the key hits they’ve been lacking these past two weeks. It was a pitcher’s duel early, with both teams only […]
Blue Jays 1 Twins 7 That was awful in a lot of ways. The offense was sad, just six hits, only one an extra base hit, Daulton Varsho’s fourth of the season. It was good to see, because he’s looked lost at the plate. George Springer had two singles. Vlad, Clement, and Valenzuela had one […]
The Dallas Stars and Minnesota Wild first-round series has been a competitive matchup in the Western Conference. With Jesper Wallstedt in the net and a deep forward group, the Wild have maintained their composure, unlike Jamie Benn. The Stars would trail the Wild for the majority of game five, as a goal scored by fourth-line forward Michael McCaron would put the team two goals ahead, 3-1, in the third. Tensions would boil over, as Benn cross-checked Ryan Hartman first in the ribs, and t...
First Pitch (CT): 6:40 PMTV: Twins.TVRadio: TIBN/830 WCCO/102.9 The Wolf /Audacy AppKnow Yo’ Foe: Bluebird Banter Bad news: The Twins keep losing extremely winnable games either due to offensive ineptitude, a bullpen built like it’s 2003, or a combination of the two. Good news: every other team in the AL is also bad. As I […]
George Springer is back in the lineup and hitting lead off in the first of four games against the Twins. And Pinango is in the lineup too. It looks like they are going to give him some playing time. Brandon Valenzuela gets a start again, after a great game yesterday. Austin Martin is having a […]
Yakov Trenin’s return from an upper-body injury gave the Minnesota Wild a much-needed boost in Game 5 against the Dallas Stars, and his presence mattered in ways that went beyond the stat sheet. After missing the previous two games, Trenin returned to the lineup for a crucial swing game in a tied fi...
The Minnesota Wild are not known for being a beefy team. Their most important players include Kirill Kaprizov (5-foot-10), Quinn Hughes (5-foot-10), Jared Spurgeon (5-foot-9), and Mats Zuccarello (5-foot-8). On the other hand, their first-round opponent, the Dallas Stars, boast the second-tallest an...

San Antonio has officially wrapped up the first round, winning its first playoff series since 2017. Naturally, now all eyes look ahead in a “hurry up and wait” situation, as the 3-6 matchup plays out between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Denver Nuggets. Regardless of how things play out, San Antonio sits in a position of […]
Mats Zuccarello’s return gave the Minnesota Wild exactly the spark they needed, and the effects were obvious almost immediately.
Only 3 minutes and 51 seconds into the game, the Dallas Stars attempted to clear the puck out of their zone. Ryan Hartman intercepted the clearing attempt, passed th...

It has never been easy to be a Minnesota sports fan, but something might happen for the first time ever and it's actually a good thing. The Minnesota Wild have the opportunity to close out their first-round series against the Dallas Stars Thursday night, as they currently hold a 3-2...
G’day everyone and a happy Mariners off-day to you! Cole Young was the hero once again yesterday in a 5-3 come-from-behind win over the Twins. The M’s closed out April with a clean 16-16 record. All things considered, I’m pretty satisfied with that (especially after a rough start to the year). How are you feeling […]
